Thinking today that while his presidency was far from perfect, in eight years Barack Obama had no personal scandals, didn't fire cabinet officials for not being corrupt enough, and didn't plunge the entire world into an economic crisis by starting a dumbass war. Feels like a million years ago.

It begins. Clearly incriminating evidence against president of the United States. Epstein to Maxwell, April 2, 2011: "i want you to realize that that dog that hasn't barked is trump. [VICTIM] spent hours at my house with him ,, he has never once been mentioned. police chief. etc."

Speaker Mike Johnson is delaying the swearing in of the new House Member because she’ll be the 218th vote to force the release of the Epstein Files. He pretends to be a good Christian man while protecting violent child rapists.

Yes, a more diabolical Terminator plot would be it zapping into the past, taking someone's desk job, then approving slop after getting promoted to editor.

According to sources, you can't move someone with a Public Safety Factor (PSF) designation - which Maxwell had - without waiving it. That's what happened here.

There are 2 previous historical cases of countries destroying their science and universities, crippling them for decades: Lysenkoism in the USSR and Nazi Germany. The Trump administration will be the 3rd. It's not just budgets but research, institutions, expertise, and training the next generation.
Graphs showing 25 years of budgets for the National Institute of Health, NASA, and the NSF. In all cases, the proposed budget for next year is far, far below any year of the previous quarter century.

Breaking news: The U.S. economy shrank in the first three months of 2025, contracting by an annualized rate of 0.3 percent, a stark reversal after nearly three years of solid growth, as tariff-related uncertainty upended spending patterns and raised fears of an impending recession.

The bunny harvestman (Metagryne bicolumnata) looks like a bunny operating a spider-legged mech-suit. Native to the rainforests of Ecuador, they're harmless (no venom glands) & eat rotting vegetation & some small insects. They belong to Order Opiliones. Just a little guy. (📷: Andreas Kay)
It's a yellow-shaded 'daddy long-legs' as we used to call them, a harvestman.  But on its 'back' is a black shape that can only be described as looking like a bunny carved out of tar, with two little yellow dots and two "horns" that look like bunny ears.  It sits on a green leaf with some little water droplets and maybe some bird poo behind it?
